Why you need so many locks?

I don't use any lock. If they(expert) want to steal your car, whatever locks also no use unless you have security system like Jaguar, Lexus, BMW, etc.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Well not all thieves are "expert".... some kinda stupid one... icon_idea.gif

this is what i think, if they need to spend more time to steal a car,
maybe they will quit to do so. rclxms.gif

will try to ask them whether can solve the problem or not.

yesterday i park my vios beside my neighbour's car: vios too,
when i want to open my back boot by alarm controller,
my neighbour's car alarm alerted,
is it because of alarm frequency crash?

think of it as your size 8 feet wearing say... size 12 shoes... any difference?

bigger rims = wider tyres = more road contact = more grip = more friction = "heavy" feeling, correct me if i'm wrong

You are missing the main point: more fc = more $$ spent

and

you car will become less responsive. You need to pedal a bit more to move your car.

Overall, 17" rim is not ideal if you want to save petrol money for monthly expenses.
